Safety Information
maintained badly.
f) Use the power tool, accessories, insert tools, etc. in
accordance with these instructions and in a fashion
specified for this special tool type. Take the working
conditions and the activity to be carried out into
consideration.
The use of power tools for purposes other than the
intended ones can lead to dangerous situations.
5. Service
a) Have your tool repaired only by qualified specialist
personnel and only with original spare parts.
This ensures
that the tool safety is maintained.
b) If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or it’s service agent or a similarly qualified
person in order to avoid a safety hazard.
For secure handling of Airless high-pressure spraying units the
following safety regulations are to be observed:
U
Health protection
Danger
Caution!
Wear breathing equipment: Paint mist and
solvent vapors are damaging to health. Always wear
breathing equipment and only work in well ventilated
rooms or using supplementary ventilating equipment.
It is advisable to wear working clothing, safty glasses,
ear protection and gloves
U
Flammable materials
Danger
Do not use the spray guns to spray flammable
substances.
U
Explosion protection
Danger
Do not use the unit in work places which are covered
to the explosion protection regulations.
U
Danger of explosion and fire through
sources of flame during spraying work
Danger
There may be no sources of flame such as, for
example, open fires, smoking of cigarettes, cigars or
tobacco pipes, sparks, glowing wires, hot surfaces,
etc. in the vicinity.
U
Electrostatic charging (formation of
sparks or flame)
Danger
Under certain circumstances, electrostatic charging
can occur on the unit due to the rate of flow of the
coating material when spraying. On discharging this
can result in the emergence of sparks or fire. It is
therefore necessary that the unit is always earthed through the
electrical installation. The connection must take place through a
correctly earthed two-pole-and-earth socket outlet.
U
Ventilation
Good natural or artificial ventilation must be ensured in order to
avoid the risk of explosion or fire and damage to health during spray
work.
U
Secure device and spray gun
All hoses, fittings, and filter parts must be secured before
operating spray pump. Unsecured parts can eject at great force
or leak a high pressure fluid stream causing severe injury.
Always secure the spray gun when mounting or dismounting the
tip and in case of interruption to work.
U
Recoil of spray gun
Danger
In case of high operating pressure, pulling the
trigger can effect a recoil force of up to 15 N.
If you are not prepared for this, your hand can be
thrust backwards or your balance lost. This can lead
to injury. Continuous stress from this recoil can
cause permanent damage to health.
U
Max. operating pressure
Max. permissible operating pressure for spray gun, spray gun
accessories and high-pressure hose may not fall short of the
maximum operating pressure of 200 bar (20 MPa) stated on the
unit.
U
Coating substance
Caution against dangers that can arise from the sprayed substance
and observe the text and information on the containers or the
specifications given by the substance manufacturer.
Do not spray any liquid of unknown hazard potential.
U
High-pressure hose
Danger
Attention, danger of injury by injection! Wear
and tear and kinks as well as usage that is not
appropriate to the purpose of the device can cause
leakages to form in the high-pressure hose. Liquid
can be injected into the skin through a leakage.
High-pressure hoses must be checked thoroughly before they are
used.
Replace any damaged high-pressure hose immediately.
Never repair defective high-pressure hoses yourself!
Avoid sharp bends and folds: the smallest bending radius is about 20
cm.
Do not drive over the high-pressure hose. Protect against sharp
objects and edges.
Never pull on the high-pressure hose to move the device.
Do not twist the high-pressure hose.
Do not put the high-pressure hose into solvents. Use only a wet cloth
to wipe down the outside of the hose.
Lay the high-pressure hose in such a way as to ensure that it cannot
be tripped over.
Electrostatic charging of spray guns and the high-pressure hose
is discharged through the high-pressure hose. For this reason the
electric resistance between the connections of the high-pressure
hose must be equal or lower than 197 kΩ/m (60 kΩ/ft.).
i
For reasons of function, safety and durability, only
use genuine WAGNER high-pressure hoses and spray
nozzles. For overview see „Spare parts lists“.
i
The risk of damage rises with the age of the high-
pressure hose. Wagner recommends replacing high-
pressure hoses after 6 years.
U
Connecting the device
A properly earthed socket outlet with earthing contact must be
used for connection. The connection must be equipped with a
residual current protective device with INF ≤ 30 mA.
